Today I am 10dp3dt with2, 8 cell embies. I have tested yesterday with Internet cheapies and was bfn. My beta on monday!!Want to try frer today or tomorrow , but so scared from inside!!! If it's bfn, I will be a broken heart. On other side, I am thinking that if I'll test early I will be ready for any result on first beta!! How many of u suggest taking early testing or just wait for first beta for everything?? Thanks ladies

I think that may be a bit too early. I tried at 12dp3 dt and got a faint positive. If you don't want to wait for beta try testing tomorrow and Sunday. Good luck!

@mcgeelisha I tested early and thought it would help me but all it really did was make the bloodwork and waiting for the results harder, I'd suggest waiting - I know my next time I'm not testing early.

@makeavish I tested 8dp3dt after my FET and got a clear positive on a frer. I took an Internet cheapie the same day and it was negative. It took until around 14dp3dt for an Internet cheapie to show up. In the UK you don't get a beta booked until after you've taken a test at home and then they only do beta if your test at home was positive so for me there was no was I wasn't going to test early. Lol.

I never tested until after my beta and I'm glad I didn't!

@makeavish I feel like not testing until beta is like thing people strive for, but I say do what you want! I like how the UK does it- positive hpt before you have to go in for bloodwork. I say the result is the result and you won't change it by testing every day! Good luck!

@makeavish I got a negative hpt the night before my beta and my beta was well above the "normal range" the next day. My DS is now a healthy 15mo! You never know until beta confirms.

@makeavish My baby was conceived with the help of an anonymous egg donor and anonymous gestational surrogate mixing my sperm with my partners sperm and 15 doctors with a laser IVF I CSI we tested at 10 days Beta positive but we did not letter self get excited until they found a heartbeat at 11 weeks that was when the chances of miscarriage or loss dropped from point percent to 1% we are now 18 weeks and three days. And we are due in April 2013 good luck and think positive that work for us

@makeavish I think it depends on the person. I bought enough hpt s to take one a day everyday for my 2ww. It felt like I was doing something proactive. Since I couldn't do anything but wait besides that. Every time it was negative my heart dropped, but when it was finally positive wow! I still kept testing to make sure the line was getting darker (increased hcg levels). I'm a little off my rocker sometimes though. I got all early pregnancy tests.
